Sorenson Face Scrutiny Over Bachmann Campaign Payments
The independent prosecutor found probable cause Sorenson violated Senate ethics by being paid for his role as Bachmann Iowa campaign chair in 2011. He allegedly lied to the Senate Ethics Committee and faced possible charges for felonious misconduct. The report details a payment trail through C&M Strategies to Sorenson’s Grassroots Strategy Inc and related transfers, with no direct link to a criminal act, but possible conspiracy evidence. The Senate Ethics Committee planned to meet to review findings.
